I have a very good looking jumpshot, kinda like Ray Allen from any range. But Im not a sharpshooter or something.

by **Riot** on Fri Dec 17, 2004 7:09 am

I can't hit a damn shot. I mean, I have pretty good form but they just don't go in. I get nervous when I shoot.

My skills are on defense and making the hustle play

by **John-John Joe** on Fri Dec 17, 2004 7:20 am

I'm trash to tell you the truth, my game is purely physical and getting underneath people's skin with intense defense. But my offense is terrible, though I have some excellent handles......I'm way more of a baseball guy......

by **Username123** on Fri Dec 17, 2004 8:20 am

I dribble the ball really slow for some reason and thats where i got my nickname--"Matrix" As for shooting when i am hot i can hit shots when i am not i jus miss shots.

by **Jackal** on Fri Dec 17, 2004 8:25 am

I shoot like the greatest of all time.

i have really good handles for a white dude, buuuut inevitably since i can dribble better than everyone else i had been practicing more than everyone else in this aspect. it really hurt my overall game,extremely streaky shooter and terrible defender. good passer though. too much and 1 mixtape ruined my game :roll:

by **Jing** on Fri Dec 17, 2004 9:10 am

used to be the best shooter on my team, but then i didn't pratice for a while, and now only like a 60% free throw shooter, and only like 30% from 3 these days.

I can dunk like Shaq but I can't touch the rim.

when i practice for days i have a pretty consistent jumpshot; when i don't i end up shooting like allen iverson (very streaky)

by **Nick** on Fri Dec 17, 2004 2:32 pm

Yeah same with me. A few weeks ago i practiced my outside shot heaps... did like two 40 minute sessions a day for about 5 days and got my shot to be really good. I reckon i was hitting about 70% of open shots from 3. Although i haven't practiced in a while and i went and practiced today and forgot my technique.

Gonna have to start from scratch again i think.

Shooting isn't my forte though in bball. I like to think my team play is great. Good vision offensively. Good hustle and D. (Y)

I can't handle the ball very well though. I can make a great pass... but my dribbling will let me down.

by **SkipToMy_Lou** on Fri Dec 17, 2004 7:09 pm

I'm probably the best shooter on my team (Under 18/A grade, Keilor Village) but if I don't practice for more then a week, then I'm terrible and will have to put a lot of work into getting my shot consistent again.

My major weakness is probably my dribbling and strength, used to be a lot stronger but slacked of the weights so aren't that built any more and I'm 6'2" so play center atm and need to gain some more muscle.

by **J@3** on Fri Dec 17, 2004 7:31 pm

You're 6'2, play under 18's and you're a C? Wow, that must be a pretty small team. Especially if you're not that big weight wise.

by **SkipToMy_Lou** on Fri Dec 17, 2004 7:59 pm

Damn right we a small team, I hate playing centre and power forward. At my old team I was more of a SG then soon as I changed teams they put me at centre because of how undersized we are. I play ok at center though, get a lot of blocks caus of my vertical leap and am a good post defender.

by **cklitsie** on Fri Dec 17, 2004 9:50 pm

Wow, I'm not too big either but I'm a 6"1 PG and I just turned 16 last month, 6"2 center is reeeeeeeeeeally small

by **Andreas Dahl** on Fri Dec 17, 2004 10:35 pm

Can't shoot for shit. I'm not consistant nor am I skilled in the area, when I shoot I go for luck :wink:

I'm not a good offensive player and not to good on defence either... Although I play for fun, so it's all good (y)

by **Jason Kidd.** on Sat Dec 18, 2004 2:16 am

Yeah shooting is a big ? If you don't practice you don't have shot. I practice game situation jump shots every day like 20 minutes.
I can dribble the ball well. But i can't block shot's anymore.LIke year or 2 ago i blocked 4-5 shots every fucking game,now i can't block shots for shit :cry:

by **[Q]** on Sat Dec 18, 2004 3:25 am

Although I'm a streaky shooter, I can hit 3s from NBA range... yeah but I SUCK at ball handling and decision-making, so I don't make a very good point guard

When you suck in ballhandling take a ball dribble it all the time,get used to it with the ball.Touch the ball,feel it lol it sounds gay but if you practice enough you will be good at it.don't think you suck in it,it doesn't help you man.Self confidence is very important. :wink:

Yo can do it if you really want.

I'm about 80% from 18-20 feet it, and I can float it over the big men in the paint. But I'm streaky from outside, I think about it too much. Gotta let it flow. I'm 70-75% from the line.

My strengths:
Good shot selection, I shoot about 60%, and I'm a 2-guard
Passing, I can find an open man, most of the guys on the team just automatically pass the ball to the next player the offensive play calls for.
Sprinting up the court, I get an obscene ammount of open lay-ups by sprinting up the court as soon as we have the ball.
Knowledge of the game

Weakness:
Strength, have to rely too much on positioning to guard the post.
Quickness, I have to play way off my man on defence
Streaky shot

by **Colin** on Sat Dec 18, 2004 6:32 pm

I meant the streaky shot from outside, I didn't explain it the second time there because I talked about it earlier. And quickness and speed are different, I figure you had enough NBA Live create-a-player experience to know that. :wink:

by **J@3** on Sat Dec 18, 2004 6:53 pm

Nah I created too many 7'7 Euro freaks with great 3pt shooting ability to bother with quickness/speed.

by **Doobie** on Wed Dec 29, 2004 9:45 am

Well i have horrible form , i shoot with both hands , but my shots go in at least 65% of the time , i barely miss , i can shoot like that open or in pressure.
